View 2 RepliesComboBox Populated And Displayed With Multiple Columns
Nov 8, 2010I have seen something like the following in many software. Combo box populated and displayed with multiple columns (for example stock code, stock description). But now I am only able to populate with stock code. May I know how to achieve this? I know it can be done by calling a form (And I can do whatever coding in this form) out when clicking on the combo box. But I am looking for better solution, or is it possible to populate the whole datagrid into the combo box as source instead of only the data.

Save Setting Of ComboBox After Add / Remove New Items By User?
Mar 31, 2010I have added a textbox and a combobox into the form. There are 2 buttons as Add and Remove. Everything works fine here but the problem is after addig/removing (using add/remove button) new items into the combobox, when I close it, the new items added/removed are gone. I need to save the new items added to the combobox during close. I can understand I have to create a Application Setting which will save the new items added to combobox upon closing. But I don't know which code I need to use? Below are the currently used code of this project.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
' This is to add new items to combobox
ComboBox1.Items.Add(TextBox1.Text)
'MsgBox("" & TextBox1.Text & " Successfully Added to Combobox")

Forms :: Choose Item From ComboBox And Save Selected Value To DataSet
Dec 23, 2009I have a problem with a combobox. I have a form (with information about clients) with textboxes binded to a dataview. One of the columns in the dataview contains a number that tells me what kind of client it is. I don't my users want that my users have to fill in a number in a textbox, but I want them to choose a item from a combobox. De selected value should be the value that is actually saved in the database.
This is my
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
Dim dr As SqlDataReader
VerbindingMaken()
cmd.Connection = cnnVraagbaak
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
[Code] .....
De Datasource is the information in my combobox. With Databindings I'm trying to bind it to my dataset (or view, that doesn't work either) with clients. Every time I get a NullReferenceExeption. The moment I remove the line cbo.DataSource = dsRelatie.Tables("Relatiesoort"), I don't get an error, but it doesn't work either.
That dataset is filled (I've checked) and also the derived view. The column Relatiesoort exists. What do I have to do to make it possible for my users to choose an item from a combobox and save the selected value to the underlying dataset?

Jan 15, 2010I have a program that reads a database file(.csv or.Txt) then allows user to select data from 6 different comboxes and taext boxes are then populated based on the selection made from combobox
I would like to be able to give the user the option to save their settings so next time the program is open it will connect to the same database as the last connection and also have comboboxes go to the last selection Do I have to create a save setting value for each combobox? and the connection string?

Populated With A Specific ID And Name?
Jun 22, 2011I have several combo controls that need to be populated with a specific ID and name. I want the user to choose the name and have the ID in the background. Later when the data is exported from the database the specific ID's are exported and not the names.
I see that I can create the items in the combobox rather easily using their names. However, how can I associate the ID number for each of the items. Private Sub frmReceipts_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
' Add receipt types to combo box
cboReceipt.Items.Add("Monetary")
cboReceipt.Items.Add("Inkind")
cboReceipt.Items.Add("NSF")
End Sub
I thought it would be better to have a seperate table with the different receipt types and then somehow connect/link the contents of this new table to the combo box on this form. However, I am at a loss on how to do this.
RE DataGridView Not Populated
Feb 18, 2010[Code]...
I tried binding a DataGridView to a DataSet using the DataSource property but no data appeared in the DataGridView. I placed a DataGridView in an empty form, making no property changes except for the name. I did not create columns in the DataGridView. In the form's load event I placed the following code for loading a dataset named ds Executing in debug mode, I confirmed that there was data in that dataset. No column headings or data appeared in the DataGridView. What am I doing wrongly? There are 34 fields (columns) in the DataSet - maybe it exceeds the capacity of a DataGridView.

Using DataTable Populated With A Sqldataadapter?
Nov 24, 2010I am fairly inexperienced with using datatables in VB. My question is this: Can I access a particular column of a table by name if it is not defined elsewhere like when I populate a datatable using sqldataadapter.
[Code]...
Is this the way it can be done? I believe this is the case, but can't find any definitive examples online (probably not searching properly)
